Sprint LTE active in Lewisville, TX (North of Dallas) - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Saturday night, was having a late dinner after a movie & was sitting near 35E/Hebron when I looked down at my phone & noticed "4G" around my signal bars. I immediately try to load some pages to see how it loads & was cool to see them load faster. I immediately downloaded the SpeedTest.Net app & gave her a whirl. All this compared to the 4G on my Evo in my signature:

Funny thing was, I was searching earlier in the day to find out when/if LTE would be active.
I posted the screenshot & my cousin immediately responds with an image of his own down in Rosenberg, TX (Southwest of Houston, I think Verizon though):

Verizon just lit up LTE at my home and work. The going isn't that great but damn its fast.

Not great for you, but good enough to do most tasks

Am I lucky with these speeds? Post your speeds.

The top four are from my house at various server distances. I know I am lucky with the wifi because I only pay for around 15. I never have had los and only saw it on my wife's stock epic touch once. I bought my phone off of ebay and I'm on the eg30 modem. I am afraid to switch with it working so great.

During peak hours I got this, much better than the stock Ek02 which was 0.01mbps down and 0.13mbps up... I don't know what Sprint is doing but my speeds are much better for the past 2 days
By the way I am on EL26 ROM Modem and Kernel. if that matters.
3g - 1189d 709u 138p
4g - 3772d 592u 139p
wifi - 11597d 4092u 30p
idk if thats good or bad at 1AM but it keeps me happy =)

CDMA GNEX with no 4g/LTE

I'm 40min north of L.A.... it's a pretty dense area... but I am only seeing 3g. Under mobile networks I have it set as 3g/lte but it never switches to 4g.
If its the Sprint version, there is no LTE anywhere. Some people see it sometimes, but only cause they're testing the towers.
If you're on Verizon, look at a coverage map or call them up to ask if they have it.

Wifi and mobile data on at same time..?

I never saw this before. .
Connected to my wifi at work, and I got a picture message from my daughter... then the 3g and wifi were on at the same time.

The pxt message comes through 3G that's why both your wifi and 3g are on at the same time.

3g is always running in the background when wifi is on but it will only notify you that its being used when you need that particular service. From what I understand voice calls are also placed through the 3g service but defaults to 2g when there strength of your 3g is not good enough.
Someone please correct me if I am wrong.
Cheers,

^ That's my understanding if it as well.
Not all carriers will make the phone show data activity indicator when receiving mms, but I think it's very common.

Q- How to turn on 4G LTE on a Sprint GS3?

My Evo 4G LTE has an option under mobile data to set it to CDMA or CDMA/LTE. My girlfriend has a GS3 an doesn't get 4G in places where I do. I didn't see where to cycle between CDMA only and CDMA/LTE on her GS3. May be an obvious answer, but we just got together so I haven't played with her phone much and didn't see where to make this change. Thanks for any help!

Oh by the way, her phone is stock unrooted and running 4.1.2. I haven't done anything with it just yet

Thank you VERY MUCH! I have no idea how I overlooked that! Just a different set up than my phones, but that shouldn't have mattered because I play around with many different phones. I was just being a noob, lol. Alright, nothing more to see here folks, let's move along and pretend this never happened! Lol

What is the upper right dial on the classic face for?

Does anyone know what the top right dial is supposed to tell and how to read it? I've been trying to figure out how to read it but have no idea. Haha I'm guessing it has something to do with northern and southern hemispheres and day and night in each hemisphere but what are the numbers around the dial?

Looks like the Monthly Moon phases from the two different Hemispheres...
But what do the numbers signify? And why is one of them 29.5?

Looks like they are averaging out 30 days around a month...

Hmm doesn't make sense to me since the numbers haven't changed in a couple days both N and South are pointing to 5 at the moment. Also according the the moon phases it should be a half moon tonight.. But both dials are showing more than half.. Looks like 3/4. I really want to find out how to read this dial.. Lol

I believe it's your battery indicator.
